Does Anyone Agree With This Statement

Post by Glennfs »

Whatever the results of the midterm it will be because we had a free and fair election.

If the republican party wins it will be because the voters chose their message and their candidates over the democratic party message and candidates.
Not because of any dirty tricks or gerrymandering or anything else.

If the democratic party wins it will be because the voters chose their message and candidates over the republican message and candidates.
Not because of voter fraud or ballot box stuffing or voting machines.

In other words we are about to have a free and fair election with no more or no less hanky panky than we see in any election.

That is my opinion do any of you share that opinion.

I agree. Too bad your side doesn’t. The only way they think it’s fair is if they win.

All of your precious opinions come from the same perverted whites-rule authoritarian ideology that guides the Republican Party.

Personally, I could really give a sht about them, whatever the topic.

The last thing anyone needs is agreement from violent, illiterate white supremacists.

I believe decisions about the fairness of elections should be made based on evidence not wishful thinking.

I also believe and trust election officials who certify said elections. Unfortunately, the GOP appears ready to elect a lot of people who don't. :|

Bad enough for "garden variety" politicians - worse with those whose job is oversight, such as Sec's of State.

I also support full restoration of the VRA and extension of voting rights. Voter caging, suppression, intimidation must be stopped.

It remains to be seen. Right now, I'm leaning toward a no.

The hanky panky is now based on international data analytics and is harder to spot than ballot box stuffing or ward heeling, but it's still a problem.

It would be free and fair if you had an independent, non-partisan group overseeing the elections. It's less free and fair when politicians make the rules.

Seems like if people were really being denied the right to vote they’d be hi lighted, trotted out front and center. Plastered all over the media. Not seeing that. There is record high registration and voting. Pretty much everywhere.

Do you think there is any such thing as a non partisan group.

Absolutely.

There are lots of people who could take a balanced approach. I mean, I could. Yes, I have a bias but I can operate independently of that bias. It happens all the time, all over the world.

I get that you conservative whites have been told your entire nauseating life that the people you’re oppressing are supposed to love you.

It’s distorted your reality to the point that you read “hatred” in rejection of your political violence.

I get that SJWs have taught you your entire life to hate the white man. A lesson you've learned well.
Sidebar to you white liberals people like CJ hate you as much as she hates people like me. The only difference is she tolerates you.

I remember racists like CJ telling us when we kids that there are some good black people. But don't turn your back on them because at the end of the day they are still black.
Well that is the way CJ thinks of you. Proved by the fact that she believes that all whites especially in our country are inherently racist and those who don't show have to work very hard to supress it.
CJ is nothing more than a hate filled bigot who had she been born white would have a KKK robe in her closet.
I truly feel sorry for her living a life full of hatred is very sad

Your White Citizen's Council paranoia is showing. So's your lacking education.

The best you've got is imitating, parroting, and mimicking what I say. Being a typical con, you're too dumb and too lazy to come up with your own words.

What makes you the angriest, though, is when those oppressed by violent, illiterate conservative white males reject your oppressions. You guys have a 400+ year old history of it. Put that hemp rope away.

SJW is a buzz phrase popular with right wing racists on me-too forced-agreement cliche-spewing Internet slums and off-the-wall AM radio talk shows. It's the US equivalent of the UK desire to deport refugees to Rwanda. It's essentially a verbal necktie party. When cited in an argument on an intelligent forum, it renders that argument meaningless except as a personal rant, even if it was intended to be much more. For me, anyway, it's a full stop. Message discounted, sent to cerebral circular file.

Yes, those using SJW are using a racist, white supremacist pejorative which shows them for who they really are.

We have a perfect example of that here, Zowie. Our own rightwing racists.

SJW is a euphemism for "fkn niggers".

Used by culture warrior minions like Glennfs, God warrior cultists, and spiritual warfare warrior cultists, everywhere.

The red-baiting and n-word baiting history of these terms shows a really clear pattern.

What's strange is conservative who view themselves as "warriors" appropriated that term during Gulf War II. Yet, when it came time for these conservative "warriors" to enlist and help fight Gulf War II and the War on Terror suddenly they had aliments that prohibited them from serving. Like Rush Limbaugh with his bone spurs to get out of the draft during the Vietnam War. Our conservative "warrior," glenn, refused to join the military because they didn't pay enough for him to join. With conservatives, it's always the other guy who needs to serve and conservatives will only join if there's a profit motive for them. We used to call them Chicken-hawks when they're really just Chicken-shits.

Far as I'm concerned any people of military age who scream for wars all over the place but who never want to enlist and go fight them have no credibility. Right after 9/11 several people in the public eye actually put their bodies where their mouths were and joined up. The rest just talked a good game.

Russia appears to have a similar issue.

And when called out for using "nigger" they claim the didn't know it was derogatory (as if we believe that!).

Yes, true for any social slur they utilize. But especially that one.

Some of them will even tell you that their filthy epithets are terms of endearment...and get REALLY angry when you point out that they're being doubly insulting.

White supremacism is a hell of a drug. :?
